Configuring ArcMC to Manage a Transformation Hub

Note: For Azure or AWS Transformation Hub, you complete configuration procedures as detailed in Completing Integration with Azure Transformation Hub or Completing Integration with AWS Transformation Hub before you perform the procedures in this section.

The following instructions only apply to the standalone version of ArcMC, Fusion ArcMC is automatically configured to manage the Transformation Hub in the same cluster.

ArcMC serves as the management UI for Transformation Hub. In order for ArcMC to manage a Transformation Hub, the Transformation Hub must be added as a managed host to ArcMC.

This process will include these steps, which are explained below:
